METRO Urban Design Manual
Category: Book Design
Studio/Firm: SWA Group
Client: Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County
Time: 2022
I was honored to be part of this Award-winning project. I’ve participated in creating some essential sections in the manual, including covers, table of content pages, chapter divider pages, informational charts and infographics, icons, and some layout of the contents. The Urban Design Manual provides guidelines that support the high-quality standard of design, delivery, and maintenance that contributes to safety, comfort, and quality of life throughout the METRO service area.
By doing this project I’ve learned the importance of transforming miscellaneous information into graphic language, to help enhance the usability, readability, and overall effectiveness of the manual.
